Autumn leaves

Why is it that the minute the leaves start turning I begin to look at the colour red and think 'hey, yes, I like the look of you' ?

Let's get one thing clear: I do not suit red. I have tried all shades, from blue-based to golden hues, and have failed to find anything more than a mere smattering of rust that does not bring out my red-toned skin into the realm of hyper-saturated-on-the-verge-of-lobster. Let me reiterate, I do not suit red.

And yet, here I am, flicking through the ad campaigns on the pages of Wallpaper Magazine, Vogue and Tatler, hovering and gawping at the Prada shearling coat and the editorial shots of Dior. I convince myself that yes! This will be the year! This time, I'LL DO IT- I can wear THIS type of red. Alas, I fear this is just a mere pipe dream that has been wrongly fed to my impressionable self by the advertising team at Vogue HQ.

If, however, you are able to wear this very seasonably appropriate hue, I beg you to indulge in one of the most regal colours this month.

GT-C.
